Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Imperial, CA.

Substance abuse rehab centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse treatment programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
